“Soarin’ Around the World” Coming to Epcot and California Adventure

Well, if there was a ride that needed an update, it was probably “Soarin’.”

Don’t get me wrong, I liked waiting 70 minutes to see Yosemite and smell the orange trees, but honestly, in Central Florida, its weird to soar over California. I guess it was going to be even weirder for guests at Disneyland Shanghai to soar over California, so next year we are going to finally see an update to this very popular attraction.

The general idea is that instead of pristine locations across the Golden State, we’ll be seeing famous settings across the world, like the African savanna and the Great Wall of China.

Here is a “making of” video that Disney Parks just released.

All and all, it looks good. They are also supposed to be doubling the capacity of the attraction, so expect 2016 to be an exciting year for Soarin’ at Epcot.
